The Legacy Voice

Shopping Legacy

The Shops at Legacy has every reason to be excited with Chef Vincenzo’s new Nicola’s Italian Rustica Cuisine opening this Spring. Upbeat. Upscale. Uptown. That’s the perfect drum roll for Nicola’s relocation from the Dallas Galleria after ten award-winning years of satisfying Italian appetites throughout North Texas.

It’s opulent, theatrical design features a sophisticated bar, romantic, high-backed booths, al fresco dining on the patio, private dining room for twelve, and a stunning mezzanine overlooking the main dining area for the best people watching in town. However beautiful the design the décor, Nicola’s guests will return again and again for the food.

Chef Vincenzo Indelicato’s Northern Italian cuisine is authentically prepared in the venerated traditions of his mother country. All pasta is hand made on-premise, using traditional shapes not commonly seen in American restaurants.

The imported wood-burning oven will produce Nicola’s award winning pizza, lasagnetta, and baked fish. Other aromas wafting from the kitchen will include zucchini fritti, calamari, and Chef Vincenzo’s legendary Focaccia Nicola. No meal will complete without a helping or two from the generous dessert sampler platter.

Rounding out the sensory overload experience are televisions in the bar broadcasting Italian programming and sports, Italian wines and aperitifs, and live jazz in the evening. It’s the perfect spot for a cool breezy Spring dining experience.

And speaking of Spring ladies, YaYa’s Boutique is sure to have the perfect outfit fit for that special evening. “The Divine Secret of Fashion” is a delightful upscale clothing boutique at The Shops at Legacy specializing in contemporary design in women’s apparel, purses and accessories for that 25 and up crowd.
